Which begs the question what does Montreal do with the Krejci line let alone Chara on defense? Spooner on the second line will happen only to keep the third and forth lines intact. CJ may keep Campbell on the second line as he may want to ween Spooner into the lineup. The consequence is messing up the forth line and TOI for all lines. Interesting. The Montreal crowd will be into the game as result of the Canadien start and the positon of the Bs in the standings. I hope the refs are not intimidated by the "fishbowl" affect.

I will be at the game and believe me the crowd makes a lot of calls in Montreal, refs are often intimidated..hate the fact that March wont be playing..well I will get a close look at Spooner...

The Habs are on fire, while the Bruins'offense is struggling....I'm not feeling it.

I'd put Peverley with Bergy and Séguin, but, that would leave us with a bizarre (weak) third line...Bourque-Kelly-Spooner ?????

And, Prust and White may take advantage of Thornton being injured....

Why I don't like this.

1) The less experienced players ( Bourque and Spooner ) will be together. Split them up.

2) That would have 3 right handed players on one line and three left handed on the other. It would put either of those two on their off wing on the 3rd line. Spooner in junior played the RW on occasion. His play along the wall was weak. It was not pretty imo. Maybe he has played RW in Providence and has improved ( I don't know ) but if he hasn't..................

Bourque as a RW ? No idea.

3) Horton, Seguin and Peverly. I like having those 3 where they are. On the right side.

I'd like to see them ( Bourque and Spooner ) split up, playing with experience and at a position they're comfortable with that gives them a better chance to succeed.

I also like the kid although his skating was never his forte and might have been his only obstacle to make it to the NHL. With that being said I haven't seen him since the juniors and might have improved in that department in the AHL.

Looking forward to seeing him play. Wonder also where they will place him ? he's a natural center but I'de like to see wim with Bergeron, that line will have 3 centers.

Totally disagree on this one BsLegion. Don't know where you get this idea from.

I always thought that was the reason he would make it. His skating was a strength in juniors. I thought he worked his edges in similar fashion to Jeff Skinner.

P.S. Natural center is overblown. He played LW a lot too the last year of his junior career and played it well.

The bruins are looking rough with injuries, I just feel like this the best mesh we can throw together right now and stay consistent. Hopefully spooner shows us something fast and helps out on the score sheet. The key for the bruins with this lineup is the dmen to be lights out we can't afford to have ference and boychuk getting blown off the puck bcs they are sloppy and expect to win against a hot team like the Canadians. Our depth is no longer a plus cj should think about slashing the fourth line minutes.
